I love the way that The Passion Translation says Jeremiah 29:11-12,
“My intention is not to harm you but to surround you with peace and prosperity and to give you a beautiful future, glistening with hope.”
And what about this in the Message Bible in Jeremiah 28:11-13,
“I know what I’m doing. I have it all planned out — plans to take care of you, not abandon you, plans to give you the future you hope for. “When you call on me, when you come and pray to me, I’ll listen. When you come looking for me, you’ll find me.””
While in the King James Version, Jeremiah 29:11-12 reads:
“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares The LORD, “plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will hear you.”
Beloved, The LORD spoke softly to me recently in my Prayer Time, saying, “The winds of sorrow have brought suffering to many, but they shall weather the storm and from the downpour shall come an outpouring and likewise from the outpouring shall come a down-pouring!
For I AM LORD and I turn everything for good.
I AM here to comfort and restore them to embrace the plans I have for them for a future filled with hope.
You have entered a time when it is urgent to FOCUS on your sphere of influence and authority to carry out your gift and call.
Remember, not every fight is yours! Don’t chase every devil!
Remember to stay in your lane where I AM sending you.
Stay on the path of where I AM sending you,” says The LORD, “for the hour is late and the need is great!
The Church must change from being an audience to being an Army!
Watch, for these are tough times — but tough times test your Faith.
Faith is the substance of things hoped for!
Yes, Chosen Ones, you make your choices — and your choices make you!
This is a special time to — “Host My Presence! Be the Message! — and Carry the Glory!”
I AM gathering My Ecclesia to be who I created them to be, as they shift into The Spirit Realm and carry out their assignments for the End-times!
Your History has prepared you for these times — but your history shall repeat itself.
The New Generation is just at the gate, ripe and ready to step into their role in History!”
